Meet the Director of CAS

Levels

CAS intervention programscan be one-on-one or small group, with sessions including a variety of techniques designed to address specific areas of difficulty and to improve overall abilities to think, reason and process information in basic skill areas such as reading, writing, spelling and math.

A “First Response to Intervention Checklist” is developed between the teacher and the A-Team (Principal, Counselor and CAS Director) when an academically struggling student is identified. Parents are informed of the intent and purpose of implementing intervention techniques. Assessments are conducted after four to six weeks to determine the need for additional intervention.

If Level II intervention has not been successful by the end of a semester and a learning issue is suspected, the teacher, A-Team and parents determine if an educational evaluation is necessary. Based on evaluation results, an intensive, individualized and targeted intervention program is recommended.
